Virtual Village Show

[Biggles]

I have just had an idea for a thread for --

Something like a Village Show ( shown by Photographs) during the Year. If Admin suggest to members the Category eg.
Best Vegetable
Best Container Grown Plant
Most unusual Flower/A photograph taken of Wild Life that we in the Garden (or elsewhere)
Best scenic view-- etc. etc. then members could vote on their favourites during the year.
Favourite Holiday photograph

These photographs could be put forward by the members themselves or others nominating them--

OR--The Board could have a "Trial for 2009"--Admin choose a particular one such as
a) "Sunflower" (Families' grand children could enter this one.)

b) "Best or Unusual Hanging Basket"

c) "Most unusual shaped Vegetable"

Just a few ideas to look at--it may get members and their families to participate in the activities of the Board.

What do members think of this idea? If the majority are game for it we can start in the New Year ;D

I think both are brilliant ideas Bigs.

If I set up boards for them and kick off a couple of threads...

What great ideas! Im going to buy a new camera soon, I can join in a few of those categories then.

Great ideas Biggles.

I must get my sunflower seeds to read the packet this year - they were supposed to be 'GIANTS', 2' was all they managed last year.

Can I make a scarecrow for the village show please? Pretty please? I just want to try and make one having been to the scarecrow festival at Belbroughton. Sorry Sleepy, I'll go now!
